Forbes that the virus’s cure lies in prayer.” In a wide-ranging interview with Forbes, Kanye West revealed that he contracted the coronavirus in late February and confirmed his run for President.  West has been at his Wyoming home with family for most of the quarantine, and didn’t mention how he might have contracted the virus. However, he did open up about what he believes is the cure. “We pray. We pray for the freedom,” he told the publication. “It’s all about God. We need to stop doing things that make God mad.” Yeezy designer also affirmed that he is running for president in 2020, giving credit to God for that decision as well. “God just gave me the clarity and said it’s time,” he said. “Now it’s time. And we’re not going crazy, we’re going Yeezy, it’s a whole ’notha level now.” The 43-year-old spoke about his past support of President Donald Trump, saying, “I am taking the red hat off, with this interview,” says West, who has publicly worn a red “Make America Great Again” hat and visited Trump for a public meeting at the White House. “One of the main reasons I wore the red hat as a protest to the segregation of votes in the Black community. Also, other than the fact that I like Trump hotels and the saxophones in the lobby.” He also criticizes Trump’s recent actions, seemingly in relation to the Black Lives Matter protests. Bug While he’s not supporting Trump any longer, West said, “Trump is the closest president we’ve had in years to allowing God to still be part of the conversation.”
